TBH, I am in board meetings for work.  I can assure you they are getting their money one way or another.  Hell it could involve having 5 people do the work of 10 and reducing operating costs.  Ain't no board taking a huge hit on their money, it will 100% be passed on, full stop.  

Going robotics, using AI, outsourcing, etc, etc.  The board is getting their money.  

If there are opportunities for reducing costs without affecting revenue and further maximizing profits, why aren't they already pursuing them independent of a prospective tax change? 

At the margins the incentive is the same whether there is a tax increase or not. 

If a company has 5% YoY growth and potentially can reduce costs to get 7% YoY growth they're going to aim to do that just the same as if they get 2% YoY growth and want 4%.
